@t @veganstraightedge I'd like to see user research on what identifiers people "get". Otherwise you're just speaking from personal bias.

@veganstraightedge naw, just use email-style formatting: chrismessina@twitter.com. WebFinger will make it just work^tm.

Years from now, appstores will seem like the bellbottoms of Web 2.0. Sure, they're sexy now but long term, impractical. #markmyword

@veganstraightedge nah. Convention is user@realm. Using user:realm looks too much like user:password!

@peterfoti to understand ChromeOS, you must reimagine the desktop as a cell phone, which is tied to one OS and one carrier.

@steveivy FTW! #realidentity

RT @monkinetic: Un-becoming redmonk http://www.monkinetic.com/2009... #identity (Can has @steveivy?)

RT @rr: IE9, and the overwhelming response: “Please, just use WebKit:” http://blogs.msdn.com/ie...

The RWW analysis of ChromeOS lacks imagination. Connecting the browser to the hardware changes everything: http://www.readwriteweb.com/archive... /via @catone

This is brilliant, tho have a feeling you'll never see these side-by-side @ local B&N (or Amazon, which is also a shame... as the title is like the book equivalent of those "gogle.com" typo URLs :) - http://www.flickr.com/photos...

@ohadpr I don't know when HTML5 offline storage for Gmail will arrive. Since Gears still works, you'd think it'd just be an API change...

@ohadpr nope. Gears is being replaced by HTML5 offline storage. Gears is essentially deprecated, but you will have offline email.

@Jesse I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on ChromeOS and identity.

@VictusFate Not good enough. I'm guessing you'll need-slash-want a Google Account to use Chrome OS. This has all kinds of ramifications.

Apparently Camino 2.0 came out too! Yay for open source! http://caminobrowser.org/release...

RT @iTod: YES! Techmeme Mobile (for smartphones) launched http://news.techmeme.com/091119... /me: now it just needs support for HTML5 offline cache!

Makes sense why Google purchased that wireless spectrum. If not Android, then for ChromeOS.
